ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a liquid dispenser and grooming brush for animals by which a free-flowing liquid can be applied to the skin of an animal, the liquid being contained in a chamber having a first plurality of generally flexible, solid members extending normally from the bottom wall thereof and arranged in spaced relation to each other for combing and separating the hair of the animal when the dispenser is urged toward the skin of the animal and is moved in either of two opposed directions and a second plurality of generally flexible, hollow members also extending normally from the bottom wall of the chamber and communicating therewith, the free ends of each plurality of members terminating in a common plane. Each member of the second plurality is provided with a self-sealing slit adjacent its free end, the slits being opened when the dispenser is moved in one of the two opposed directions with the free ends in contact with the skin of the animal and with a downwardly applied pressure to the dispenser that is sufficient to open the slits to emit the liquid. When the dispenser is moved in the other of the two opposed directions, the second plurality of members also serve to comb and separate the hair as well as spread or blend the emitted liquid over and into the skin.
